| Obverse description | Two large Chinese characters in raised relief occupy the central field, reading 明命 (Minh Mạng), the reign title of Emperor Minh Mạng rendered in traditional regular script (kaishu). The characters are boldly struck and dominate the flan, with 明 placed above 命 in vertical arrangement. The flat inner field transitions to a radiating sunburst border of fine, evenly spaced lines encircling the design. The outer rim is defined by a reeded edge, characteristic of Nguyễn Dynasty gold coinage. |
